Resumo
Esta pesquisa de mestrado objetivou uma análise das crenças de autoeficácia docente para o desenvolvimento do pensamento algébrico em alunos do ensino fundamental da rede pública do Estado de São Paulo. Para a análise das crenças de autoeficácia dos docentes que lecionam Matemática nos anos iniciais e anos fundamentais, foram utilizadas duas escalas elaboradas e validadas nas quais os participantes da pesquisa manifestaram seus julgamentos sobre suas capacidades em atividades que visam ao desenvolvimento do pensamento algébrico. Cada escala foi composta por uma série de afirmações que representam situações didáticas em que os participantes puderam discordar totalmente, discordar, concordar ou concordar totalmente. As alternativas foram organizadas no formato likert e para cada afirmação o docente participante só pôde assinalar uma única alternativa. Participaram da pesquisa nove professores dos anos iniciais e 39 professores dos anos finais do ensino fundamental. Para a análise e interpretação dos resultados utilizamos a metodologia mista. Constatamos que os professores demonstram crenças de autoeficácia positivas, porém essas crenças não são fortes. Dentre as variáveis que podem influenciar nas crenças citamos a idade, concepções de álgebra, autoconceito, formação inicial, pós-graduação, persuasão social, materiais curriculares e o interesse dos alunos na percepção dos professores. Discutimos, neste trabalho, como as crenças de autoeficácia impactam as motivações, escolhas e comportamentos dos docentes em suas práticas.
This master's research aimed at an analysis of the beliefs of teacher self-efficacy for the development of algebraic thinking in elementary school students of the public network of the State of São Paulo. For the analysis of the beliefs of self-efficacy teachers who taught mathematics in the initial years and fundamental years were used two elaborate and validated scales in which the participants of the research manifested their judgments on their abilities in activities that aim at the development of algebraic thinking. Each scale was composed of a series of statements that represent didactic situations in which the participants could totally disagree, disagree, agree or agree totally. The alternatives were organized in the likert format and for each statement the participating teacher can only point to a single alternative. Nine teachers from the initial years and 39 teachers from the final years of elementary school participated in the research. For the analysis and interpretation of the results we used the mixed methodology. We found that teachers demonstrate positive self-efficacy beliefs, but these beliefs are not strong. Among the variables that may influence beliefs, we cite age, conceptions of algebra, self-concept, initial formation, post-graduation, social persuasion, curricular materials and the students 'interest in the teachers' perception. We discuss, in this work, how the beliefs of self-efficacy impact the motivations, choices and behaviors of teachers in their practices.
